The first cedar window and door range to meet BAL 40 from Stegbar THE 2010 Building Code of Australia (BCA) and the amended Australian Standard AS3959 – 2009 has now set in place new requirements for building and construction requirements affecting bushfire zoned areas. The new requirements address all aspects of the external built environment, including windows and doors. To provide product solutions for these new requirements, Stegbar has developed a range of BAL 40 windows and doors, and in an industry first, Stegbar can provide a suite in Cedar that achieves a BAL 40 rating. The 2010 BCA and AS3959-2009 have now been adopted by all states effective May 2010. The amended Australian Standard AS 3959 outlines different construction practices and building materials for five new Bushfire Attack Levels (BALs). This standard applies to new buildings and renovations/extensions. Stegbar, a JELD-WEN company, has been manufacturing aluminium and timber windows and doors for over 60 years in Australia. “Australian homes need windows and doors that can stand up to harsh environmental forces, while being functional in terms of regulating temperature and light; and they need to achieve this without compromising the look of the home,” says Bruce Tosello, Director of Marketing for JELD-WEN Australia. With this in mind, the Stegbar research and development team set about to develop a range of windows and doors that can offer ultimate peace-ofmind against bushfires, without the need for bulky shutters, fire curtains or screens on fixed glazing. As a result, Stegbar has developed a range of windows and doors that has been extensively tested and meets BAL 40 (extreme) criteria. “The BAL 40 rating was achieved on a purpose designed window and door system using specially designed frame components, glazing systems and specialist silicone seals. These systems comply with AS1530.8.1 testing criteria and were tested by the CSIRO,” commented Bruce. “We are very excited to launch an industry first, the only cedar window and door system that has been tested and passed AS1530.8.1.” Stegbar’s Cedar window and door system is the first cedar system in Australia to pass these tests. The innovation in design, stringent construction and quality of components and materials means Stegbar can provide Australia with the first fully certified BAL 40 cedar system. As well as providing cedar options to BAL 40, Stegbar have systems available in aluminium and Merbau that achieve a rating of BAL 40. These systems comply with AS3959 and AS1530.8.1 testing criteria. “There’s no need to compromise safety for style, you can have full confidence and peace-of-mind with Stegbar’s windows and doors, no matter where you build,” Bruce concluded.

Coloured Concrete complete with froth and bubbles
THE Swinburne University Advanced Technical Centre is taking shape in Hawthorn. Designed by HTO architects, it features a remarkable white coloured concrete exterior. The theme of the façade is that of frothing bubbles emanating from the base of the building with decreasing circle diameters travelling up its height, eventually becoming uniform. The exterior concrete panels are made by Melbourne-based company Advanced Precast. It used four different casting tables in a muffin pan configuration to create the frothing bubble effect. A brilliant white pigment supplied by Concrete Colour Systems (CCS) was used with off-white cement to create the distinctive finish. Excellent uniformity in colour has been achieved, despite the panels being manufactured over 12 months and spanning four seasonal changes. Swinburne University is another of the many buildings around Australia where CCS pigments have been selected to colour concrete. Contact Concrete Colour Systems for colour cards and further information on colouring concrete.

The first is the Infinity Screen, which delivers superior performance for large doors and windows. The Infinity Screen has Freedom Screens’ toughness and strength built in to securely screen large openings so popular in modern Australian homes.

This is a great feature for windy areas and outdoor enclosures and is a must for large doors and windows. The screen also has a new easy-to-operate patented brake system which allows the screen to stop in any position along the track. You can also recess the lower track to sit flush with door sills. Infinity screens can span 3m in a single screen or 6m in a double. The Infinity screen is also available in a pulldown style for windows or enclosures. All screens are custom-made to clients' requirements and are available in a large range of colours.

Saniflo – just lie back and relax LONG imagining how her salon/day-spa could be redesigned to create the best space for her clients, owner Maria sought architectural and designer advice only to be told it was not possible due to the location of plumbing and sewer pipes. After speaking with a long-time family friend and experienced plumber, Saniflo Australia’s Sanicom® grey water pumps were recommended to make the dream a reality. Resistant to high temperatures (max 90°C) and capable of pumping 10m vertically or 100m horizontally (or lesser combinations of both), the Sanicom® pump is specifically designed for heavy duty commercial installations such as commercial kitchens, laundries, bars, nursing homes, as well as hairdressing salons and day spas. With three Sanicom® pumps installed, the new fitout project was completed in several weeks rather than months and features an open layout 12-seat hairdressing salon, two nail stations, seven treatment rooms, three pedicure spas, twin hydro-massage basins, steam shower and the latest hydrotherapy treatment equipment – all of it exactly how and where Maria envisaged! Providing plumbing solutions since inventing the product back in1958, Saniflo lets you install new wet areas anywhere you chose. With units designed for every conceivable plumbing problem and almost seven million units sold worldwide, Saniflo are easily the market leaders. Smarter. Easier. Faster. So you can relax!

Hunza – Pure LED lighting for simplicity and performance LED lighting is rapidly becoming the design option of choice, due to its superior energy efficiency, exceptionally long life span and safer operating temperature. At Hunza, we provide a wide range of LED options for quality outdoor and landscape lighting. The Pillar Pagoda Lite LED combines style with exceptional performance and quality. Available with G4 and MR16 LED lamps, this luminaire can be used to produce both a wall wash and ambient lighting effect simultaneously and may be used for uplighting or downlighting. Machined from a choice of 10 mm thick aluminium with a UV stable powder coated finish, solid copper or 316 stainless steel, with virtually no maintenance required, this luminaire provides an ideal and cost effective solution for your outdoor lighting needs.
WITH new green trends no longer being trends, and in fact becoming regulations, builders, architects and institutions are seeking alternative materials when constructing new buildings. One of the major ingredients to consider is the energy use of a new or retrofitted building – and when it comes to energy bills and environmental impact, artificial lighting is often a big offender. However, homes, businesses and schools have been increasingly embracing tubular daylighting. This form of daylighting is leakproof, heatproof and provides natural daylight from pre-dawn to post-dusk. Australian-born and now global, Solatube boasts the world’s best Tubular Daylighting System, with the highest performance guaranteed. It has NFRC approval and the energy and Green Star approvals.

NOW anybody can enjoy the space transforming benefits of bi-folds with Centor’s new bottom-rolling system. Centor folding systems can now be installed in openings without structural support from overhead beams. This is thanks to Centor’s new innovative bottom-rolling technology that transfers the door weight to the floor. This allows folding doors to be specified in any

Builders can save time and hassle as the new Centor bottom-rolling system installs easily with just hand tools. Other bottom-rolling systems have previously had many shortcomings, such as poor functionality due to dirt and grit getting into tracks, security issues, poor
weatherproofing and high sills. Centor’s engineered system addresses these issues and is a delight to use. For a range of applications, Centor’s new bottomrolling bi-fold system is Centor’s most flexible folding system yet.

If the cabinet has a cornice or moulding, the door will swing up and over. The Strato Parallel Lift Up front fitting for single fronts lifts parallel to the cabinet. This lift is ideal for wall cabinets that have cabinets above and is great for concealing microwaves and appliances. All three overhead fittings can be adjusted to individual heights and close smoothly and silently thanks to Huwil’s soft close mechanism. In addition, they are also available in an electronic version. The E-Senso, E-Verso and E-Strato offer electric opening and closing and include a programmable push button, which allows the user to set the stopping point of the door. The mechanism simply kick starts the movement and the gas struts do the rest, saving energy and money without compromising stability. All Lift-up fittings from Huwil are silver-grey in colour and suitable for both aluminium-framed and timber doors from 350-900 mm wide and up to 24.5 kg in weight. With built-in soft-close fittings, you can be guaranteed that the cabinet doors operate smoothly and quietly.

Moving space with Variflex®
Keystone Acoustics KEY-DESIGNA solutions
THE success of today’s modern interiors are characterised by the ability to successfully merge function and aesthetics. A functional operable wall system should also blend harmoniously with its surroundings. Variflex® from DORMA translates creative and artistic ideas into reality and counters the most challenging aesthetic needs. Regardless of their characteristics and function, rooms can be effortlessly partitioned, made smaller, larger or reproportioned to suit individual requirements. Any area, from a small conference room to a large exhibition hall, can be adapted to suit a varying number of uses. Correctly setting up an operable wall is often an unenviable task. Variflex® makes the whole process easier through some very clever thinking. Panels incorporate a full length magnetic strip in each interlocking edge that assists in providing a positive seal and correct mating. Similar to the function of a high end refrigerator seal, the magnetic strip ensures any acoustic leakage at the panel junctions is addressed. The design and technology behind Variflex® is what sets it apart from other conventional operable wall systems. Make sure you request Variflex® when designing your next operable wall.
KEYSTONE Acoustics has a range of panelling solutions for all of your needs. Our one-of-a-kind KEY-DESIGNA panels offer custom engineered finished products to match your unique design criteria. Our KEY-DESIGNA panels have been used in a number of projects across the country, including The Cave restaurant in Maroubra. The Keystone product used was 12 mm KEY-PLY plywood with a natural timber veneer, clear finished on both sides of the custom-shaped panels. This very unique and appealing design was aimed “to change the way we eat and chat in restaurants. The acoustic quality of restaurants contributes to the comfort and enjoyment of a dining experience. The timber profiles generate a sound studio atmosphere and a pleasant ‘noise’ of dining conversation, offering a more intimate experience, as well as a visually interesting and complex surrounding. “The series of acoustic curvatures were tested and developed with computer modelling and each ‘timber grain’ profile has been translated and cut from computer-generated 3D data using Computer Numerical Control (CNC) technology,” according to Koichi Takada Architects.

Roof anchors – it’s all about staying on top SECURE Anchor Systems has one priority in manufacturing and developing roof anchors – to assist building designers and workers implement height safety with a minimum of fuss and as easily as possible. Low profiles, clean lines and the ability to supply anchors powdercoated to Colorbond® colours allows for seamless integration with today’s modern roof lines. Secure Anchor Systems anchors are now being more widely accepted on domestic as well as commercial projects by architects and designers. The Corrugator® and Corrugator360® roof anchors are two such patented products being widely adopted and used throughout Australia, New Zealand and now North America. The anchors are surface mounted, preventing the need to access the roof cavity and making penetrations through the sisalation, insulation or roof members. Fixing through roof members such as top chords on trusses can also void warranties from truss manufacturers. Secure Anchor Systems also supplies a number of Ladder Access Points with the same surface-mounted principle for easy application. All Secure Anchor Systems anchors comply with and meet the 15 kN benchmark set out in AS1891.4 for fall arrest and can be installed in as little as 90 seconds with a standard cordless drill. Other anchors are manufactured to suit metal roof profiles, such as Trimdek® and Spandek® and Secure Anchor Systems can provide custom servicing for clients with specific height safety needs.

Maximise prevailing winds with Breezway Louvres WHY close up your building design and run air-conditioning when you can open it up to take advantage of fresh, cooling breezes to cool your building, the way nature intended? When it comes to cross flow ventilation, the larger the window opening to allow ventilation, the greater the cooling effect is. Breezway Louvres open twice as wide as a regular window to provide ventilation through around 90 per cent of the wall opening. Warm indoor air can be efficiently replaced by cooler air from the outside, thereby physically cooling the building.
Breezway Louvres can also be made to fit almost any space (e.g. tall thin windows, square windows or wide short windows) to achieve the minimum BCA ventilation and daylight floor area requirements. If the building is initially designed to provide greater access to fresh air, this will not only reduce the reliance on artificial lighting and cooling systems, but has been proven to encourage a healthier environment for building occupants.
